About this property

Maison des 'Etoiles is an architectural masterpiece sitting on the northern face of the Gros Piton, a World Heritage Site, and is the highest Villa. The three-sided home is built of Greenheart wood native to the rain forest and volcanic rock which bubbled to the surface millions of years ago. If you love to go natural, this is the vacation home of your dreams. The home is artistically decorated with carvings from local artists which blend into the rich deep wood grains of the Greenheart. This is a truly unique home which you will only experience once in a lifetime.

The expansive view from the villa's multiple decks unveil one of the world's famous World Heritage Sites, consisting of the heavenly blue Caribbean Sea, the cliff of the Gros Piton and the majestic Petit Piton. The two Piton Mountains are the symbols for St. Lucia and Maison des 'Etoiles is enveloped in this spectacularly beautiful mountainous setting. A true Nature Lovers Paradise!

The home has an expansive living room with a volcanic waterfall as its central theme, one master bedroom with its own sitting deck and full bathroom, and two guest rooms which share a second bathroom. The second bedroom also has its own sitting area and spectacular view. All bedrooms enjoy a panoramic view of the Caribbean Sea and Sky. A full-sized dining room seats eight as candlelight flickers in the light ocean breeze. The bathrooms are a combination of volcanic rock and natural wood. Enjoy a sizzling hot shower while hearing the birds singing outside. There is a third-story tower which can be used as a sitting area or sleeping area. At night reach out and touch the personal star you are making a wish on.

Newly remodeled Kitchen is a chief's dream. Our guest consistently rave about Mary's cooking for them. Come and enjoy a relaxing vacation with wonder local food being cooked for you if you are interested.

Our guest consistently note that the pictures do not capture the true splendor of the Villa and it's spectacular views.

A place we’ll never forget!

What an incredible home for us for a handful of days - it is such a special and stunning spot, and we already miss the birds, lizards, rainforest chorus, rain showers, sunshine, and magnificent views.

What a view

The house was perfect! My wife and I felt at home from the moment we arrived. The view was unbelievable, nestled between the pitons. I was worried about the open concept, but after the first night, I was left waiting to fall asleep to the sound of the night in St. Lucia.

Amazing stay at Maison des Etoiles

Our family of 5 stayed at Maison des Etoiles for 2 nights (kids age 3, 5, 8). The house is amazing! The views, the open air, the staff - so peaceful and relaxing, truly special. My favorite part was the master bedroom and waking up looking out to the Petit Piton - so magical. Only caveat for little kids: you do need to keep a close eye on them as building codes in St Lucia are not as strict. Mary was wonderfully welcoming and cooked a tasty meal for us on arrival day. Pious was so helpful and drove us around on our day out. We hope to be back soon!

Absolutely stunning

As multiple others have stated, while the listing pictures are beautiful, the actual property & views are better - simply spectacular!The owner answered all of our (many) questions quickly & was great to work with.Selecting the option of a house car driver during our stay was the best decision we made. The roads in the area are challenging at best; Pius (the driver) navigated them with skill & ease. He was incredibly polite, unbelievably prompt, & had great restaurant suggestions as well.While we did not utilize Mary (housekeeper) for any cooking, she too was incredibly polite & kept the property spotless.Simply an amazing place to stay - highly recommend!

Amazing stay

The villa is perfectly situated on the side of Gros Piton with a beautiful view of the ocean and Petite Piton. Mary prepared a wonderful welcome dinner and Pius was available to help us with any needs around the property. On clear nights the view of the stars from the tower deck is breathtaking. I would recommend this home to any and everyone looking to enjoy a peaceful retreat in Saint Lucia!

My family's favorite house ever

We loved the house! I don't have much to add that isn't already covered in other reviews. The house is truly a work of art and as much as my family enjoyed exploring Saint Lucia, we all agreed that the house was the highlight of our trip. Thank you again to the owners for sharing this unique place.

Great spot! Amazing views, the open air home felt very close to nature. Our friend did get a lot of bites, but she said totally worth it! Seeing a rainbow over the Pitons as you wake up in your king bed is quite the experience! Check in was great and Mary and the staff were very helpful and polite. Highly recommend booking this paradise of a spot

One of a kind view/house

The house has an incredible view. Features an open house concept which was both unique and enjoyable. Bedrooms had fantastic views. Pool was nice. Good kitchen to cook, the grill is propane and no longer requires charcoal so while we purchased some as the description stated to, it was not necessary, I wish that was updated. Home caretakers were friendly.

Best vacation ever!!

The villa is absolutely magical. The views are incredible. And Mary and Pius are exceptional. Mary’s cooking was the best! Any time we had any questions, Pius was always there to help. The sounds of breeze at night made for some of the best sleep I’ve had in years. St.Lucia is filled with so much beauty and rich with so much history. I really can’t say it enough, best vacation ever!!!

Living outside, differed maintenance

We stayed at Maison des Etoiles for two weeks the end of January 2025. Reviewing this facility has been challenging because while it is a spectacular place in a picturesque setting, it is more open to the elements than we were accustomed and, sadly, suffers from differed maintenance.When we first arrived, the design of the house was awe inspiring. Built with its high back to the prevailing winds and with shutters that can be propped open for ventilation as desired, the open interior of the house, with its multiple levels, varnished surfaces and mast-like support poles, seemed like being on board a large sailing ship. The view from the house toward Petit Piton and the blue-green bay below is spectacular. Sailing vessels were ever present in the distance. During the day, a light rain would send rainbows arcing across the sky. The pastel hues at sunset were quite photogenic, especially from the observation porch perched well atop the main living areas.Mary, the housekeeper, and Pius, her son, were delightful and quick to do whatever we asked. They seemed ever present, yet careful not to intrude. Mary fixed us a delicious Carribean dinner the night we arrived. One evening the internet went out and Pius had it fixed as soon as we mentioned it the next morning. He offered to drive us wherever we would like, but we had rented a car. Staying at “House of the Stars” is like residing in a rainforest along with all the creatures that live there. Crickets and frogs chir

Stunning and Unique

From the first correspondence with David to the experience at the property with Pius and Mary was a pleasure. Amazing views and lots to see on the island. Only negative was the 6 days of rain but it is a rain forest after all and did not keep us from doing any of our planned activities……

This house is gorgeous! We had an amazing stay with our family of five (3 kids ages 4,5, and 7). Pius and Mary were wonderful! We spent most of our time swimming/snorkeling at sugar beach! We were there over New Years and could see the fireworks from the beach up at the house which was a fun surprise! Hope to come back some day!

About the host

Hosted by DAVID HAUSMAN AND PATRICIA GILLETTE

We took our boat from Ohio all the way down to St Lucia. We love adventure. When we arrived in St Lucia we anchored at Sugar Beach and saw the Villa from a distant. We have sailed around the world. Our Villa is in the hands of our staff who have been at the property since it was built. When you rent the Villa you are renting it from us not a management company who may have no personal interest in your stay.

Why they chose this property

Love at first sight. When we where looking on the Island and the minute we walked through the door we knew this was a special place and we where meant to own.

What makes this property unique

Calm, peaceful and constant exotic scenery. Near the beach and has a wonderful hike up the Gros Piton in it's backyard. Also close to shopping and great places to visit. Enjoy the pool and relaxed atmosphere of the surrounding area.
